* Rename `newKvt()` -> `ctx.getKvt()`
why:
Clean up legacy shortcut. Also, the `KVT` returned is not instantiated
but refers to the shared `KVT` that resides in a context which is a
generalisation of an in-memory database fork. The function `ctx`
retrieves the default context.
* Rename `newTransaction()` -> `ctx.newTransaction()`
why:
Clean up legacy shortcut. The transaction is applied to a context as a
generalisation of an in-memory database fork. The function `ctx`
retrieves the default context.
* Rename `getColumn(CtGeneric)` -> `getGeneric()`
why:
No more a list of well known sub-tries needed, a single one is enough.
In fact, `getColumn()` did only support a single sub-tree by now.
* Reduce TODO list
* Use simpler schema when writing transactions, receipts, and withdrawals
Using MPT not only slow but also take up more spaces than needed.
Aristo will remove older tries and only keep the last block tries.
Using simpler schema will avoid those problems.
* Rename getTransaction to getTransactionByIndex
* Bump nim-eth, nim-web3, nimbus-eth2
- Replace std.Option with results.Opt
- Fields name changes
* More fixes
* Fix Portal stream async raises and portal testnet Opt usage
* Bump eth + nimbus-eth2 + more fixes related to eth_types changes
* Fix in utp test app and nimbus-eth2 bump
* Fix test_blockchain_json rebase conflict
* Fix EVMC block_timestamp conversion plus commentary

`initTable` is obsolete since nim 0.19 and can introduce significant
memory overhead while providing no benefit (since the table will be
grown to the default initial size on first use anyway).
In particular, aristo layers will not necessarily use all tables they
initialize, for exampe when many empty accounts are being created.
This PR consolidates the split header-body sequences into a single EthBlock
sequence and cleans up the fallout from that which significantly reduces
block processing overhead during import thanks to less garbage collection
and fewer copies of things all around.
Notably, since the number of headers must always match the number of bodies,
we also get rid of a pointless degree of freedom that in the future could
introduce unnecessary bugs.
* only read header and body from era file
* avoid several unnecessary copies along the block processing way
* simplify signatures, cleaning up unused arguemnts and returns
* use `stew/assign2` in a few strategic places where the generated
nim assignent is slow and add a few `move` to work around poor
analysis in nim 1.6 (will need to be revisited for 2.0)

* CoreDb: Remove crufty second/off-site KVT
why:
Was used to allow late `Clique` to store directly to disk
* CoreDb: Remove prune flag related functionality
why:
Is completely legacy stuff
* CoreDb: Remove dependence on legacy API (tests unsupported yet)
why:
Does not fully support Aristo
* Re-factoring `state_db` using new API
details:
Only minimum changes needed to compile `nimbus`
* Update tests and aux modules
* Turn off legacy API and remove `distinct_tries`
comment:
The legacy API has now cruft status, will be removed soon
* Fix copyright years
* Update rpc for verified proxy

`persist` is a hotspot when processing blocks because it is run at least
once per transaction and loops over the entire account cache every time.
Here, we introduce an extra `dirty` map that keeps track of all accounts
that need checking during `persist` which fixes the immediate
inefficiency, though probably this could benefit from a more thorough
review - we also get rid of the unused clearCache flag - we start with
a fresh cache on every fresh vmState.
* avoid unnecessary code hash comparisons
* avoid unnecessary copies when iterating
* use EMPTY_CODE_HASH throughout for code hash comparison
This PR extends the `nimbus import` command to also allow reading from
era files - this command allows creating or topping up an existing
database with data coming from era files instead of network sync.
* add `--era1-dir` and `--max-blocks` options to command line
* make `persistBlocks` report basic stats like transactions and gas
* improve error reporting in several API
* allow importing multiple RLP files in one go
* clean up logging options to match nimbus-eth2
* make sure database is closed properly on shutdown
* Introduce wrapper type for EIP-4844 transactions
EIP-4844 blob sidecars are a concept that only exists in the mempool.
After inclusion of a transaction into an execution block, only the
versioned hash within the transaction remains. To improve type safety,
replace the `Transaction.networkPayload` member with a wrapper type
`PooledTransaction` that is used in contexts where blob sidecars exist.
* Bump nimbus-eth2 to 87605d08a7f9cfc3b223bd32143e93a6cdf351ac
* IPv6 'listen-address' in `nimbus_verified_proxy`
* Bump nim-libp2p to 21cbe3a91a70811522554e89e6a791172cebfef2
* Fix beacon_lc_bridge payload conversion and conf.listenAddress type
* Change nimbus_verified_proxy.asExecutionData param to SomeExecutionPayload
* Rerun nph to fix asExecutionData style format
* nimbus_verified_proxy listenAddress
* Use PooledTransaction in nimbus-eth1 tests

* Update README
* Nimbus-main: replaced `PruneMode` options by `ChainDbMode` options
details:
For the legacy database, this changes the phrase
- `conf.pruneMode == PruneMode.Full` to the expression
+ `conf.chainDbMode == ChainDbMode.Prune`.
* Fix issues moaned about by NIM compiler
* Fix copyright year
